The 2022 NAFA Clean Air Award Winners Have Been Announced!

The Clean Air Awards are presented each year to the building owners and managers who take steps to significantly improve the quality of their indoor air by increasing the level or efficiency of their HVAC air filtration system in 10 specific categories. All candidates are nominated for the award by NAFA members, like BGE, and must submit detailed and specific steps taken toward cleaning the indoor environment through “best air filtration practices” and system hygiene.   

NAFA’s Executive Director, Emily Bardach, CAE, congratulated the award winners by saying, “The 2022 Clean Air Award program received an unprecedented number of submissions this year. The past few years have been a challenge for our members and their clients. Responding to the need for stricter indoor air quality specifications, the nominated facilities have all increased the level of indoor air cleanliness with filtration and improved system hygiene.”

Candidates are nominated for the award by NAFA members and must submit detailed and specific steps taken toward cleaning the indoor environment through “best air filtration practices” and system hygiene.  A NAFA Certified Air Filter Specialist confirms these improvements. Nominees are judged by the NAFA Clean Air Award Committee, and each recipient receives a custom-designed award, building signage, and recognition for their efforts.

“We are proud to see our customer’s efforts recognized with a NAFA Clean Air Award because it not only demonstrates their commitment to improving indoor air quality but also their trust in BGE to provide them with the right products and solutions,”  said Jan Arciszewski, VP of Sales, Marketing and Customer Service for BGE Indoor Air Quality Solutions. “We are thankful for the partnerships we have with these building owners and managers and their dedication to delivering healthy and clean indoor air environments. I also want to recognize our BGE Clean Air Advisors and Service teams for their hard work. Congratulations to all the winners!”
